Meet Kid, the youngest descendant of a rich, demented hotelier named
Big Daddy. Kid is the newly appointed manager of “The Suites,” but
his good looks and swagger can’t hide a rough childhood of strange
therapies and brain operations that have awakened inner demons and
psychodramas. This of course makes him eminently quali ed to perform
lobotomies. A failed rockstar/ successful madman gets one last chance
to prove his worth — and regain his sanity— by turning the hotel that
was once his childhood sanctuary into a lucrative business despite a
host of obstacles including seductive shapeshifters, dead literary
heroes and Kid’s own sister, who would love nothing more than to see
him fail miserably.
